Default Re: Will Virgin Phone Line work

well i pay for talk talk and you have to have a phone line aswell for it to work and the total is 19.99 a month , even though i dont even use the phone lol i havent even got one plugged in. Now Virgin Media 5meg unlimeted internet is 21.00 a month without the need of a phone line as it uses the same cable as tv and no phone line needed.
So for 1 pound a month extra thats the way im going lol

The reason i cancelled my vm bband is because their internet is Bullsh1t for anyone who downloads. I couldn't stand their traffic management. So moved over to o2 (no limits, no traffic management, and is cheaper than what i was paying with virmin)

Thats all well and said mate and your right with what you said

but there is a down fall with it as well... with ADSL you will not get the required Speed you need, especially if your downloading. Its all down to how near you are to the exchange.

As your aware if you are a heavy downloader, then bandwidth is something that is never enough and people always crave for faster speeds. Take me as an example.

Also I am certain that if your a 50MB package they don't do any throttling @ all from what I have heard.
